Jquery ajax setTimeout after form succes not redirecting?
I tried questions showing up before asking a question didnt have chance to make it work. it works fine when I add it to mail send success alert, But I dont want to add script in php part.
I am trying to redirect contact page to an another page after form success and delay a few seconds.
Here is my Jquery ajax :
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#ContactForm').submit(function(event){
event.preventDefault();
var formValues = $(this).serialize();
$.ajax({
url:"modules/contact.inc.php",
method:"POST",
data:formValues,
dataType:"JSON",
success:function(data){
if(data.error === 'ok'){
$('#result').html(data.error);
setTimeout(function() {
window.location = 'index.php';
}, 1000);
} else {
$('#result').html(data.error);
$('#ContactForm')[0].reset();
}
}
});
});
});
I tried the folowing setTimeout();
in success function but didnt work:
setTimeout(function() {
window.location.replace("index.php");
},1000);
Then I tried : window.location.replace("index.php");
without setTimeout function didnt work too.
window.location.href
window.location.hostname
window.location
This one works for modal in another page
setTimeout(function() {
window.location.reload();
}, 3000);
These are my tries didnt have a chance, Thanks for any advice and help.
EDIT: Here is php part for data.error contain:
$error = "";
// Validate user name
if(empty($_POST["fname"])){
$error .= "<p class='error'>İsim girmediniz.</p>";
} else {
$name = test_input($_POST["fname"]);
}
// Validate email address
if(empty($_POST["email"])){
$error .= "<p class='error'>E-Posta girmediniz.</p>";
} else{
$email = $_POST["email"];
if(!filter_var($email, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) {
$error .= "<p class='error'>E-Posta doğru formatta değil.</p>";
}
}
// Validate user subject
if(empty($_POST["subject"])){
$error .= "<p class='error'>Konu girmediniz.</p>";
} else {
$subject = test_input($_POST["subject"]);
}
// Validate user message
if(empty($_POST["message"])){
$error .= "<p class='error'>Mesaj girmediniz.</p>";
} else {
$message = test_input($_POST["message"]);
}
// Validate user departman
if(empty($_POST["departmant"])){
$error .= "<p class='error'>departman Seçin.</p>";
} else {
$departman = test_input($_POST["departmant"]);
}
if($error === ''){
require "../PHPMailer/mailer.php";
$mail = new mailSend();
$email = filter_var($_POST["email"], FILTER_SANITIZE_EMAIL);
$name = test_input($_POST["fname"]);
$subject = test_input($_POST["subject"]);
$departman = test_input($_POST["departmant"]);
$message = test_input($_POST["message"]);
$error = $mail->sendMail($email,$name,$subject,$departman,$message);
}else{
$error .= "<p class='error'>Formda bir hata oluştu.</p>";
}
$data = array(
'error' => $error
);
echo json_encode($data);
EDIT : Got it work thanks for answers,
Displaying error causing the problem, $('#result').html(data.error);
I changed it to text message instead of success message from php:
$('#result').html('Form successfuly');
$('#ContactForm')[0].reset();
setTimeout(function() {
window.location = 'index.php';
}, 1000);
it works fine.
String.replace() requires two parameters. As written, it will look for the string "index.php" and replace it with nothing. Try adding a regex to match everything and replace with your new URL.
setTimeout(function() {
window.location.replace( /.*/, "index.php");
},1000);
Use the full URL (i.e. https://yourdomain.com/index.php
) or write a better regex. For instance, if your domain ends with .com, you could do something like:
setTimeout(function() {
window.location.replace( /\.com\/.*/, ".com/index.php");
},1000);
